Why it Matters

Many people want to save, but everyday financial pressures, limited digital access and competing demands on income can make it difficult to stay on track.

In close-knit communities, people can also face frequent requests to share money with family or others. While these requests often come from real need, they can make it harder for individuals to protect savings for important long-term goals.

Personal Saver responds by helping members build financial confidence, digital capability and consistent saving habits, creating a supported pathway towards greater independence and stability.

the opportunity

Personal Saver gives people a free, practical way to save for a goal they choose.

A locked savings account is set up for a specific purpose, such as a vehicle, family milestone, home improvement or other personal goal. Contributions can be made automatically from regular income, helping savings grow consistently before the money is drawn into other expenses or requests.

Through the Pama Platform, people can track their progress 24/7, stay motivated and see how each contribution brings them closer to their goal.

With O-Hub support, Personal Saver helps build discipline, confidence and control over the future.

The Impact

Personal Saver is helping people reach the goals they once thought were out of reach.

In 2025, 357 accounts were open, including 102 new accounts, with $442,000 contributed during the year.

A further $430,000 was paid out as people reached savings goals including car expenses, travel, family milestones and personal development.

Total contributions have now reached $968,000, showing what is possible when regular saving is backed by the right structure and support.
